ABOUT
Please see my reverbnation page (The Moaning Sallys) for some of my music... I wrote all those songs and played all the instruments and did all the vocals. I enjoy nothing more than playing and listening to music. As a drummer, I particularly like playing improvisational music; impulsive creativity is a lot of fun for me. I love a good old-school groove, too! Not particularly into drum solos. I also enjoy songwriting, singing, playing guitar, etc, but mostly I love playing music with other musicians. The songs posted above are all me on all instruments and vocals, and were recorded at home.

Flower Song
Flower Song
Here's a song I wrote eons ago but recorded in 2011. It's about the lack of common sense we males sometimes, or, often display in important situations.

Joys For Sale
I wrote this song 8 or 10 years ago and recorded it last year (2011) sometime when I had the house to myself and nothing to do all morning. I love days like that.

I'll Go
I'll Go
Written about 10 years ago, recorded more recently. Might as well have been Winnie the F---ing Pooh singing this song, but whatever, if it makes you barf, I'm sorry. Sometimes you just gotta love somebody.
